(La Porte County, IN) - County police arrested an out-of-state man for illegally carrying a gun.

Late Sunday night a Sheriff’s deputy pulled over a Chrysler 300 for speeding. When the driver, 24-year-old Javon Holloway of Georgia, admitted to having consumed alcohol, a field sobriety test was conducted.

In the meantime, police noticed a handgun on the floor of the vehicle.

Holloway passed the sobriety test, but was found to have a warrant against him out of Florida for a weapons charge.

His .45 caliber generation five Glock 21 was confiscated, and Holloway was taken to La Porte County Jail, where he posted bond on Tuesday. He is scheduled for a hearing in La Porte Superior Court 4 in October.
